Hebei to ban heavily polluting fuel in cities
New facilities which use heavily polluting fuel will be banned in most urban areas and coal use will be further cut in North China's Hebei Province, according to a new regulation adopted by the provincial legislature on Wednesday. Large cities will have no less than 80 percent of their township areas ban construction of new projects that use highly polluting fuel, such as heavy oil and raw coal. With its pillar industries such as iron and steel, cement and glass, Hebei boasts more than half of the country's 10 most polluted cities.
